Ichiban Buffet Kissimmee

A short drive from the hotels and attractions along Highway 192, Ichiban follows the familiar Asian-buffet formula: hot Chinese dishes, sushi, seafood, salads and a hibachi station. The official menu separates lunch and dinner prices and also lists takeaway food by weight; it suits anyone who would rather sample several items than order one individual plate. The range is broad and convenient, but diners do not describe a consistent experience.

Recent Tripadvisor opinions and the Google reviews gathered by Restaurant Guru present a mixed picture. Some guests value the selection, the amount of food for the price and particular sushi or seafood dishes; others mention an unwelcoming reception, food that can lose heat or dry preparations, including at the hibachi station. It is therefore better approached as a lower-cost self-service meal than as a carefully paced dining experience: notice which trays have just been replenished and keep expectations realistic for each specialty.

The restaurant is at 5269 W Irlo Bronson Memorial Highway, Kissimmee. Its official site lists adult lunch from 11 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday at $13.99; weekday dinner is $18.99, and the Sunday rate applies all day. Children’s prices depend on age, according to the official menu. The listed closing time is 10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 10:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday. Lunch is the strongest option for keeping costs down; groups should add drinks, tax and gratuity before comparing it with Osaka Bay.
